Attaching a cropped up pic of ?fruit of this plant
Can this be some Blumea species?
Tridox procumbens
Capitula solitary ?
This is not T.procumbens.
some Bidens sp.?
I do not think matches with any species as per comparative images at Bidens
I don’t know, Madam, if you still access eFI site or receive emails from the group. I didn’t forget that in those days we had certain personal communication over this species. But I was not ready then, and asteraceae is still complicated to me.
However, this plant should be Tridax procumbens L., not the usual form we see around. (POWO).
It took me 9-long years!!!
What is worrying is the multiple heads instead of solitary heads.
Initially it was my concern too, Sir. But then I thought those heads are actually in early stages of developing individual peduncle. Please check the attached plates – two from uploaded set and the other two plates from photographs I captured this afternoon.
Thank you so much, …, for solving this puzzle.
Indeed. it is a great relief.
Thank you Sir, my relief too, because I noticed capitula are identical, yet the specimen is very unfamiliar. When I noticed that Paradesi ji suggested the id I wanted to dig more.
